Following Gonzalez’s tweet, many netizens criticized her for what they felt was a direct insult to the beauty queen.
“If you say that @MC_Gale whoever is she, is just saying her opinion, it's obviously not! She's insulting a person,” tweeted @claralovesyew.
“We should blacklist @MC_Gale in the Philippines, she doesn't have the right to call herself a Filipino!” said @IAmChrisGun.
Supsup also finished 2nd to Miss Venezuela's Vanessa Gonçalves in the online fan ranking with 7.0 of the global online votes.
Many Filipinos felt that the 25-year-old Supsup should have won, or at least placed higher than her 3rd runner-up finish, including beauty queens Ruffa Gutierrez, Lara Quigaman and Miriam Quiambao.
“I’m disappointed that PHILIPPINES didn’t place higher but nevertheless Shamcey did an excellent job in representing our country! BRAVO!!” tweeted Gutierrez.
“Congratulations Shamcey! 3rd runner up! A place higher last year…Were proud of you! Ikaw pa rin winner ko! Mabuhay ang Pilipinas!” said Quigaman.
Even Senator Miriam Defensor-Santiago chimed in, saying she would protest the results of the pageant if she had her way.
Santiago had described the Miss Philippines bet as an "ideal candidate (who) represented the best of the Filipina."
Miss Angola's Leila Lopes was crowned Miss Universe 2011.
Miss Ukraine Olesya Stefanko finished as first runner-up while Brazil's Priscila Machado placed 2nd runner-up. -- Report from TJ Manotoc, ABS-CBN News

Mary Claire Gonzales MC_Gale just drew attention to her ugly personality and appearance with her condescending remarks. Now the whole world knows what kind of person she really is. yuck.
She's not US-Based, she's from Mississauga, Ontario Canada.
Itigil na ang pagsingit sa Kapamilya vs. Kapuso kasi parepareho kayong PINOY. Alam niyo guys, hindi na dapat pag aksayahan ng panahon itong Claire Gonzalez na ito kasi instead of cursing her or what, dapat ipagpray nalang natin siya na sana one day eh gumanda sya para naman di na siya BITTER at INSECURE. Kasi ang taong WALANG LAMAN ang UTAK, putak ng putak katulad yan ni MC Gonzalez. Nakakaawa at nakakatawa siya kasi akala niya maganda ang ginawa niya. Pero kahit ano pang sabihin ng iba tungkol sa PILIPINAS, NANANATILI pa rin TAYONG MATATAG, MALAKAS at HIGIT sa LAHAT MASAYA kasi NAKASANDAL tayo PALAGI kay God kaya di tayo natitinag. So ms. MC Gonzalez, sana gumanda kana para makasali ka na rin sa Miss U(as in Miss UNGGOY) para di ka na maging BITTER :))) God Bless PHILIPPINES and CONGRATULATIONS to Ms. Shamcey Supsup! Proud to be PINOY :))))
